Talk:In the Night Garden

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As Groucho Marx nearly said in Duck Soup: "Why a one-year-old child could understand this programme. ... Run out and find me a one-year-old child, I can't make head or tail of it." It's seriously weird, particularly hearing Derek Jacobi narrate it with lines like "Ombliboo, Tombliboo, here is my nose..."

It's clearly been designed to be 'different' from the Teletubbies in many ways, so one possible section would be a 'compare and contrast' with its predecessor: TT are 'over the hills and far away', ItNG is in the night sky. TT live in rolling hills, ItNG is set in a forest etc etc. Lovingboth 22:26, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

It is the weirdest programme I've seen in a long time. It seems to be laced with dadaist influences (e.g. Makka Pakka's song) --- probably not a first for children's TV, but I've certainly never seen it so strong. The Holy ettlz 13:45, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
